Couldn't be more disappointed with this place, fist and foremost please add a lunch menu, second please offer some chips and salsa, none of the above.. I ordered the Cameron's la Diablo extra spicy, 5 shrimp 1 slice of jalapeño, tomato sauce and a few onions and peppers.. I ordered the skinny margarita which was terrible given the fact it was 1 ounce of tequila with some mix, I corrected the bartender and said no mix, I got the same drink back. With tip it was 48.00 I will never step foot in this place again, drinks and food were terrible. I prefer my Mexico mi lindo up the street, I can get the same meal and a perfect pitcher of margarita for less, And a basket full of chips with salsa. Sorry you failed on all levels.

After a long afternoon of shopping, my friends and I built up and appetite. We wanted something…read morequick that would calm our hunger for the drive home to RI. One of my friends was more familiar with the area and recommended we come here. She ordered a plate of fried pork with tostones, some guisado de res, and white rice. The total was around $20 which was fair for the portion sizes. The guisado was a bit oily but the flavor was really good and the meat was very tender. Since the tostones did not come with a sauce, we ended up dunking them in the guisado. The tostones were on the thicker side but crispy and tasty. The fried pork was good, although maybe a little bland. The lime helped a little bit with bringing out the flavor. The white rice was good. They offer a small, medium, and large portion - small was good as a snack for 3 people. I would come back and try more of their menu items. They have a parking lot, but it was packed and the snow didn't help. There is also street parking. It is in a lively part of town, so I enjoyed people watching while eating in the car.

This is a family owned Dominican restaurant that serves a variety of typical homestyle dishes. The…read morespace is pretty big. There's a large dining/ bar area and a takeout side with a few tables. We ordered the sancocho and rabo guisado (Oxtails), with white rice and plantains. The sancocho was pretty good. It had a lot of meat and vegetables, the white rice was perfectly cooked. I thought the sancocho had a bit too much garlic in the seasoning, but it was still great, especially since it was rainy and a bit chilly. The Oxtails were simply amazing! They were extremely tender and practically falling off the bone. The sauce was seasoned perfectly and paired well with the white rice. I've never had Oxtails this good at a restaurant. They tasted just like when mom recipe takes hours and hours to make since you want to cook it long enough for the meat to become tender. The service was very friendly and attentive, the food came pretty quickly. Prices were very reasonable. If I'm back in the area, I will definitely return and order the Oxtails.

We were also offered sauces without being told there was an upcharge, & ended up being charged for an extra drink we didn't order. Tbh, this wasn't my first choice since this place has had service issues before. I guess I was too hopeful things would go differently.

The sushi menu was larger than I expected and the two rolls we ordered were delicious. The sizing of the sushi wasn't very consistent, but it had good flavor. The steak tips were cooked well. The garlic mashed potatoes didn't taste very garlicky to me, but it was okay.

Went to the spot with the hubby. Nice place, cool bar. This is the second time at this restaurant…read more Friday early evening, not a lot of people, but ut was earlyish. Hubby and I ordered some drinks, my cider was really good. Forgot the brand, but it was mango something. He had the stake tips, and they looked good , cooked perfectly. Medium rare. We also had the pork gyoza and they were tasty. Now, here comes the issue. The menu is very international, from American fare to Asian cuisine (sushi). I decided to order their queso birria tacos (quesadilla). Now, I am very familiar with this dish and the original version. I did not think they would not know what or how to make it. When I got the plate it looked okay, but it wasn't like the real Version (corn tortilla fried in the fat skimmed from the broth. The beef was good, and overall it was okay. But, u would never get that again. I would just stick to the regular food, like Fish and chips which was my second option. Overall it was good. I just know better when I visit again.

I didn't want to be rude and walk out so I decided on the two combo fish and calamari that came with two side. When they food came out everything looked good. The calamari was hard and chewy, they must have fried it twice. Had to dip it sauce to make it edible. The fish did not taste fresh. There was a weird smell almost ammonia like. Texture of the fish was off. The place is really nice and the staff were really friendly and attentive. The food was just a miss for me. Now I'm not sure if I want to drive over an hour to try the lobster roll.
